“Even when we are involved in the
most uncommon experiences we still do the same thing: we fabricate the greater
part of the experience and can hardly be compelled not to contemplate some event as its ‘inventor.’ All this means: we
are from the very heart and from the very first—accustomed to lying. Or, to express it more virtuously and
hypocritically, in short more pleasantly: one is much more of an artist that
one realizes.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil
